I will be installing my suspension soon and have had quite a few people telling me that I should get new top hats and bushings for the assembly.

Can anyone tell me where I should get them and what exactly I need?

Thanks

 

New top hats? No.

New spring isolators and rubber bushings? Yes.

FRONT:


You want new #8 and #11 for both side.

4x 51631-SS0-004
2x 51686-SM4-004 (SHOWA) or 51686-SM1-A02 (YUSA)


REAR:


You want new #8 and #13

4x 52725-SS0-004
2x 52686-SM1-A02 (SHOWA)

 

Oh and just get them at the dealer. They're probably special order and will be around $50 for everything. Top hats will add about $150 onto that.

 

Awesome thank you man!!!

I am just going to bring the part #'s in.

 

Do you think that the oem bushings will be ok? I dont even know if they make poly ones.

 

They'll be fine.... someone on here said that you can cut #14 so the bushings will compress more and "act" like they're harder poly bushings. I haven't tried it since it was mentioned after I installed everything.

Bring the numbers in, but verify you have SHOWA or YUSA shocks first, you probably have SHOWA though, I'm almost 99% positive.

 

Alright, i'll be sure to check!

Was going to go in today but I still dont have my debit card. grrrr.

 

Also, do I need to corner weigh my car? Hope not!

 

Er... no, not unless you rack at the track...

 

I race @ the track everyday! haha jp, alot of the guys on my local forum do autox
